What Comics Has Robert Kirkman Created?

Robert Kirkman is one of those creators who just knows how to grip you with his storytelling, and his comics are a testament to that. Probably his most famous work is 'The Walking Dead', which started in 2003 and completely redefined zombie narratives. It wasn’t just about the gore or survival—it dug deep into human nature, and the black-and-white art by Tony Moore (later Charlie Adlard) gave it this gritty, raw feel. The series ran for 193 issues, and it’s wild how it spawned a whole franchise, including the TV show that became a cultural phenomenon.

But Kirkman’s creativity doesn’t stop there. He co-created 'Invincible' with artist Cory Walker, a superhero comic that’s anything but typical. It’s got this coming-of-age vibe mixed with brutal, jaw-dropping twists—like when Mark Grayson learns the truth about his dad. The animated adaptation on Amazon Prime did justice to its heart and violence. Then there’s 'Outcast', a supernatural horror series about demonic possession, which he did with Paul Azaceta. It’s darker, more psychological, and the pacing keeps you hooked.

He’s also got 'Fire Power', a martial arts comic with Chris Samnee, which feels like a love letter to classic kung fu movies but with Kirkman’s signature character depth. And let’s not forget 'Super Dinosaur', a fun, all-ages adventure he did with Jason Howard—it’s dinosaurs with mechs, what’s not to love? Kirkman’s range is insane, from horror to superheroes to action-packed family stories. His work always feels personal, like he’s inviting you into these wildly different worlds but making sure you care about the people in them first. That’s why his stuff sticks with you long after you’ve put the comic down.
